AuthorTopic: NxterBridge :: Alert service (Read 3465 times)

I would like to introduce you to our new service:- The Nxter Alert Service for Nxt and Ardor accounts. (https://www.nxter.org/alerts) You can add your (or any other) Nxt and Ardor account address to our service and you will receive email alerts every time a transaction is made (sent or received). We are starting alpha-testing now, but we have many great plans to upgrade our service in the near future. You can test and use our service already now and help us by sending your feedback to help@nxter.org or by posting it in this thread. Our nearest plans:- add alert for forging blocks- add alert to approval accounts when an account under Account Control needs a transaction approved- upgrade our light blockchain explorer section on nxter.org to show more info about Nxt & Ardor.

I know this is the alpha-version, sufficient for most users, but as a power user, I'd like to ask...

1) Shuffling. Yeah, I know about "Shuffling Sundays", and I know I can monitor the network and see when new rounds are proposed, but ... my life is busy, and so are many of my fellow token holders'. I'd like to receive a message when shuffles are proposed for the tokens, assets, MS coins that I hold... And I'd like to know that others get notified if I ever set up a coinshuffle myself. Is this possible to implement?

2) How about when I lease my account balance - can you send me an email when/before my leasing period expires? I like leasing my NXT and ARDR balances to Nxter.org's forging hub - NXT-NYJW-6M4F-6LG2-76FR5 - just to support them and their work for the community. Unfortunately, I tend to forget when it's time to renew my leasing contract. I don't think there's an API for this, but is it possible to send me an email warning 1440+ blocks before my leasing contract ends? I hate seeing the power of my NXT and ARDR tokens unused.

- add alert to approval accounts when an account under Account Control needs a transaction approved

The NXT and ARDR account control / multisig feature is truly awesome. The only drawback is; whitelisted approvers must stay in touch or constantly monitor their client to see when a transaction is awaiting their approval. It's an unwanted task for escrows, for business owners that need to approve salary transactions initiated from the company's main account, etc. Who said DAO.

I am looking very much forward to this initially tiny Alert Service project moving forward. It makes me think... that perhaps we shouldn't expect everything to be implemented into the official (and cluttered) Nxt and Ardor client by Jelurida. Maybe the official client IS just the "reference software". It is possible to build great extra services on top of the Nxt and Ardor API. Actually, maybe the API is not just meant for the community to build blockchain explorers. Maybe we, Nxters, the Nxt and Ardor community, shouldn't sit and wait for them and the ANG to make deals and sign contracts with big businesses, banks, and governments, but instead, take matters into our own hands.

Who decides how this tech should be used? The tokens holders, eh?

Forget about Slack and Twitter for a moment, use the forum where posts can be followed and gold isn't lost after 10K 1-liners in several channels.Yes, admitted, I do miss the days when we, as a community of visionaries, 3rd party devs, supporters, and hodlers took action on this forum. Raised funds, built.

I dare you, Nxters and new community members, bring your complaints and your best ideas here, and we can expand this platform together. Make it the best. All of us.

Unlike you, I didn't hear about this events Can you give me more info and I think we can create additional <tab> in Alert dashboard for all users who can get email about every new "Shuffling Sunday".

Great idea, apenzl! =) I'll thinking about this feature and write you when you can test it by yourself!

Yeah! We are plan to show you something interesting this month! Stay tuned!
